In loving memory of John Edward Arnold who sadly passed away on 30th September 2024
I'm so saddened by John's sudden passing. He was my neighbor in Mistley for several years and he was such a charming and upbeat guy who would happily have a chat with me and my partner when we crossed paths. He was a friendly face during the covid days, when I was made redundant, and this year, we joked about each of our moving house woes and cheered each other on.
You are sorely missed and I wish all the best to your loved ones. Much love Charlotte and Joe
We met many years ago at Sarah and Shaun’s wedding. I know how much Shaun thought of his big brother. RIP John. Love from Karen , Sion, Holly and Max xxx
Thanks Karen xxx
How I like to remember the old boy.
And this was also at a party
He did like a party , love him x
My brothers x
Love this pic x
Mum and her first born John boy
His new car love him x
That's the bloody reason he got car obsessed x
It was our parents fault the toy cars led onto bigger more expensive things, for John his true love was cars x
Where was that taken, lovely pic x
Dad will know x
This was taken at your grand dad's cottage at cock Clarks Purleigh
The hair styles, thanks Mum
Love it x
Our family Christmas was the best as kids, a white Christmas tree, decorating it together and unpacking the Christmas food hamper from the milkman
John loved Christmas, not so much when he was older x
As a kid he certainly did, but as you've said getting older he started to hate them, depends on your surroundings I suppose. We had the best year's!
Dad and John
Showed dad he laughed x
Cherished memories
Dad had hair , lovely pic 😌

My big brother, many years you suffered with many different aspects of your life. You were never really happy but just ticked on, we had many conversations where people were not listening. One last goodbye tomorrow. You knew the risk going on that last holiday and made the wrong choice. Your actual family are all heartbroken 💔 we love you and always will. Look after Mum keep watching down on us.
I wish I could have one last time of me and you non stop smiling, going to a car meet and making a racket as usual. I will cherish the memories we have, I’m gutted we couldn’t make anymore. Love and miss you so much x

So many happy garden parties involving that bar! Good times xx
Wasn’t just the other week we laughed about how we clashed over the years. Both of us being silly and stubborn , your face gleamed when you spoke about the things you had been doing and all the things you wanted to do , and how gratefully to the family you had making memories! I’m sorry we didn’t get to have a New Year’s Eve party but I’ll definitely raise a glass to you John !
Looking after your crazy little solo all those years ago was a blessing it brought me the chance to meet you and I’m forget greatful to you for making my dear friend sue and angels life brighter! You shine bright up there John ! 💫💫
Forever greatful “

Sorry for your loss Terry, John never had enough nice things to say about you x
Johnny Boy/ Johnny bravo/ Jigsaw John. You played one of the most important roles to me/us as children. Your worth goes beyond what you ever thought for yourself. You never knew the impact you had helping us grow. We adored you, like you adored us. 🎨
Love this photo of you both, He adored you all so much x
Nice pic x
He really did adore you all, the memories at the bungalow and farmhouse were his happy times. Xx
We all loved him so much xx so sorry to you all for your loss of John. If it wasn’t for John and his patience, I wouldn’t be able to do the art I do. Next year I’ll be an art teacher. All started off with johns love and guidance, sitting with me for hours drawing and encouraging me. 🎨 xxx
He thought the world of you all, the routes later in life were hard for him. Even near the end he turned to you all again, which speaks volumes x
With love from vicki and Ken
